great info buried here
and here: http://davesgarden.com/s/72431.html
Thanks tiG, I stashed that in my favorite places, will print a copy off later, you know just incase computer acts up just when I need it. I can't wait to try to get seedpods..........T
Tonny I wrote those two pieces back before most here had any experience with growing or hybridizing Brugs. I think I was just interested in getting a few people into creating some seedpods as so many sites state seedpods are hard to come by on Brugmansia. As many of us now know, if you have a few brugs the moths and bees will start the seedpods for you. Now, imagine if Monika had wrote the piece on hybridization. I think with just the tidbits she has given us though that we are lightyears past where we would be without her.
tiG . . thanks for bringing these back up. Lots of valuable information and I had only printed. Don't know how I missed the one on hybridizing.
tiG thanks for posting these valueable info.
i have a question, do u know if there is a thread that list which brugs that require cool or hot treaments? i do not know if i said that right ... i guess what i am referring to is... like some brugs perform better in the sun, while others are best kept in the shade. TIA!
there's no one thread that has all that info. Maybe we should start one.
sounds great! thanks tiG :)! u're a doll!!!
Eric, you are right. Nevertheless I leaned much by reading it again. *lol* I mailed some Brug cuttings and a plant + pollen to a new Brug friend in Norway and got an e-mail today, how to do crosses? The pieces you wrote put me in a better position to explain that to him. :-) In Norway Brugs are commonly unknown and hybridizing Brugs is a far out in the woods of Russiah. Well, maybe it is for a short time though. In a few days Chris will know all the starter reasons and how-to-do`s and I hope he passes on what he know to a few of his Norse Countrymen.
